The Team

Ireland's offshore grid programme is a critical national infrastructure initiative supporting the country's 2030 renewable energy targets. EirGrid, as the designated Offshore Asset Owner (OAO), is responsible for ensuring the timely delivery, readiness, and operation of offshore transmission assets. The Offshore Programme Management Office (PMO) and Offshore Phase 1 Delivery Team play a central role in coordinating this transformation, ensuring robust governance, regulatory alignment, and delivery assurance across a multi-billion euro capital programme.

The Offshore Asset Readiness Programme (OARP) is responsible for ensuring EirGrid is operationally ready to assume ownership and management of offshore transmission assets. Cybersecurity is a critical capability within OARP, ensuring offshore infrastructure is designed, delivered, and handed over in compliance with statutory obligations, regulatory requirements, and industry best practice. The Offshore Cybersecurity Systems Specialist will play a key role in establishing and maturing EirGrid's offshore cybersecurity capability in support of critical national infrastructure.

The Opportunity

The Offshore Cybersecurity Systems Specialist will provide technical leadership and subject matter expertise across all cybersecurity aspects of Offshore Asset Readiness.

The role is responsible for supporting the establishment of offshore cybersecurity capabilities, ensuring regulatory compliance, reviewing cyber risk assessments, and embedding security and resilience by design throughout the delivery lifecycle.

The successful candidate will work across business, engineering, operational technology (OT), information technology (IT), and programme delivery teams to ensure offshore assets are delivered and transitioned into operation with effective cybersecurity controls and governance arrangements in place.
